A new service of the New Millennium
Candle Company is the repair and restoration of badly damaged commemorative
candles. The pics of a recently restored 80 year old First Communion Candle
show our capabilities and craftsmanship of this new service.
-
The 12" long tapered candle was broken in
two pieces and discolored over time. Both halves were badly warped and the
backside of the upper half had melted slightly losing it's round tapered shape.
-
-
The candle sections were first
straightened by warming and rolling on a shaping board. Then the two halves
were drilled on a lathe, a dowel was inserted to support the joint, and the
pieces were glued together. The flattened area on the upper section was filled
with a wax coating and then shaped to make it round again.
-
The repaired candle was polished to
restore the original luster and appearance. The gold ribbon details were also
repainted and the candle was personalized by engraving the communicant's name
vertically into the candle surface.
